    Do you deny that denial of the political and social significance of this political action taken because of bigotry is a defense of bigotry? If so, you are relying on fallacy.

        That is a non-answer to my question. I asked if you deny that denial of the political and social significance of this political action taken because of bigotry is a defense of bigotry.

        Edit:

        The context was @[email protected] providing a non-answer, saying that the removal does not matter much to them. This is not what was asked.

            You do not care, perhaps, but your personal opinion on the significance of the flag in the game does not change the fact that its removal was political. The thing being removed was a symbol and the removal was political, therefore the action of removing the thing symbolizes (per the flag being a symbol, obviously) a removal of the things the flag stands for. Which are LGBTQIA+ rights.

            Your personal opinion on the matter may be different were you a member of this minority. Either way, though, I have given you a series of axioms indicating that the removal is a symbolic opposition to LGBTQIA+ rights.

            Edit:

            The context is yet another non-answer, this time saying “I do not care”, among other things.

                It is, factually, a political action. Whether it has significance to you doesn’t change that.

                    A meaningless action

                    We have gone over why and how it provably has political meaning. It is, per definition, not meaningless.

                    I can have an opinion without being in the club

                    This is irrelevant. I didn’t say you cannot have an opinion. I said that your opinion on the quantitative meaning (severity of the meaning) of the action has no significance to the qualitative meaning of the action (the fact that the action is provably anti-LGBTQIA+ in intent).
